Generalise the network-ban store to carry the ircd X-line kind (defaulted
to the user@host G-line for existing records) so one event-sourced,
lazily-expiring, burst-reasserted list backs every ban type, and drive
ADD/DEL/LIST from one implementation per kind:
- AKILL stays the user@host G-line; SQLINE is a nick Q-line, its mask
validated as a nick glob (an @ is refused so an AKILL-shaped mask can't
become an over-broad nick ban). Both are keyed by (kind, mask).
- GLOBAL <message> announces to every user via a $* server-glob notice.
- KILL <nick> [reason] disconnects a user, attributed to the operator.
All four are admin-gated, and OperServ itself stays invisible to non-opers.
Bans and kills go out as typed actions (AddLine/DelLine/KillUser) the ircd
link serialises to ADDLINE/DELLINE/KILL.
The first operator module. AKILL manages network bans as a typed,
event-sourced list with lazy expiry, mirroring the patterns the other
modules use:
- AKILL ADD [+expiry] <user@host> <reason> stores the ban and drives an
ircd G-line (applied to matching users already online and to future
connections); AKILL DEL <mask|number> lifts it; AKILL LIST [pattern]
shows the live list, numbered. Admin-only.
- Bans are Global events, so every node holds the list and re-asserts each
one at burst with its remaining duration. Expired bans are hidden lazily
and dropped at compaction.
- Masks are normalised to user@host (a nick! prefix is stripped, both
sides lowercased) and an all-wildcard mask is refused.
Email (send_email) is already reachable from the api via ServiceCtx, and
adds AddLine/DelLine to the action vocabulary for any future X-line kinds.
